STEAMBOAT SPRINGS — A former Steamboat Springs woman who police say faked having cancer turned herself in Friday morning at the Routt County Jail.

A judge on Wednesday had signed off on the arrest warrant for Elizabeth Emilie Bateman, 34.

Bateman is accused of hosting a fundraiser for what police say was a fake cancer charity and spending the $7,000 in proceeds on herself, for which she faces a felony theft charge.

Police began investigating the incident in March after police say Bateman posted on Facebook that she had faked having cancer. Bateman, who currently lives in New Mexico, was booked at the jail, posted a $10,000 bond and was released. She is due in court June 18.

Bateman’s arrest warrant ordered that she be arrested on suspicion of Class 4 felony theft.

The owners of Boulder’s Sterling University Peaks apartments, who this summer were cited for illegally subdividing 92 bedrooms in the complex, have reached an agreement to settle the case for $410,000, the city announced Thursday.
